Bread & Butter
Invader
Hybrid16mmGen 2
The Bread & Butter Invader is a 16 mm hybrid pickleball paddle. It generates below-average spin (39th percentile) with average power and pop. It has a heavier, head-leaning swing weight that favors power and plow-through over hand speed, plus elite twist weight for strong off-center forgiveness. Overall it's a control-oriented profile that trades raw power for touch and placement.
